Quotes 

• Phyllis : Christy, when I came here tonight I had no idea what to expect: drinkers, drug users, Gentiles... but, after seeing you help that tattoo girl and that nutcase in the kitchen, you're a good person, you've done a Mitzvah, a good deed.

  Violet : [later]  Great, she helps people, but why can't she ever help me?

  Phyllis : Violet, what do you need help with? You're beautiful, you're smart, you're going to marry my son and spend 10 wonderful years with him.

  Violet : 10 years?

  Bonnie : I would bet on six.

• Christy : So when did you get in to town?

  Violet : 3 hours ago.

  Christy : You can hide out here as long as you want.

  Violet : Thanks. Where's Grandma?

  Christy : She's... on a date.

  Violet : With that lawyer guy?

  Christy : How do you know about that?

  Violet : *Everybody* knows about that.

• Phyllis : So Christy, what made you decide to go back to school?

  Christy : Well I've wanted to be a lawyer ever since I was a little girl. I watched my mom being hauled off to jail several times and I wanted to help her.

  Violet : [dryly]  Great, you couldn't just say you read a book about Lincoln?

  Gregory : Well actually, I got into psychology to help *my* mom... as you can see, it didn't work.
